5.1.3 914-HDE Ethernet Port Configuration
Figure 5-10 shows how to configure the Ethernet port auto-negotiation settings. By default the system will auto-
negotiate to the highest possible speed, but these settings are useful to ensure both side negotiate to the same
speed and duplex if they did not automatically do this.
Ethernet link speed mismatches should be avoided. Typically newer PCs will link at 1G at the console side and
older Ethernet equipment at the remote side might link at 100M. In this case, the console and remote cards should
be set to 100M and the PC should be forced to 100M to ensure that all elements in the Ethernet link are set at the
same speed.
